Jim Word works in Ector county as a Texas Agricultural Extension service Agent.

These articles on deer behavior have been published in the Odessa American at various times. {editor [web author G. Pollard has treasured them for a long time}.

We have observed all these behavioral habits; but Jim has described their habits and actions so accurately! It makes you realize he has researched the subject very carefully and covers the details so thoroughly. Only someone that has spent hours in the field could know all these details. Thank you Mr.Word for permission to publish this data in my web page!
